A system includes a stereoscopic camera to generate images of a document, such as a book, that can be converted to a three-dimensional contour of the document. A second camera take a two-dimensional image of the document. A model is generated that defines a mapping between the three-dimensional contour of the document and a two-dimensional flattened (de-warped) version of the document. The model may be applied to the two-dimensional image taken by the second camera to compensate for warping in the image.
